Howto: Transmission + GTalk.

Ahh, so I would like to know how many had successful implementations.


Also, implementation of your own custom admin command is very easy due to usage of the "err" framework.


A warning though, I am kind of a leecher :)ashamed:), so the bot takes off the torrents as soon as the downloads are complete. Let me know if you would like to change that behavior.

Pardon my ignorance, but what is this ?

Try chatting with "dockstar (@) khanorkar (dotty) com", start with ".help" .

You will see the fun.

Finally I started the installation :D

The argparse python module was not automatically installed, so manually installed it using pip.
Now trying to get it to connect to Gtalk. Realized only later that I had to manually create the necessary SRV records for XMPP/Jabber as I was using Google Apps. ;)

The problem is, the usage are realized once you start playing with it.
Actually i dont see any major advantage of using a bot
[DOUBLEPOST=1365485248][/DOUBLEPOST]One simple usage:

I am in office and my mom complains that the internet is very slow, I just do:

.stop torrents 3

and the torrents are stopped for next 3 hours.

Idea being, assuming that the internet surfing is finished in 3 hours and then yes the torrent resumes.
Benefits:

Mine earlier attempts of using the transmission website, sending - receiving mails weren't that effective. This one is.
 
Yes, this is something needs to be in place. Let me know how it goes.

Its working now :D

I guess the DNS propagation took sometime. Now need to figure out the functions properly! :)[DOUBLEPOST=1365491680][/DOUBLEPOST]

Its actually pretty cool, I liked it. Try it out.

Opening the transmission webui to monitor or add torrents is cumbersome. :meh:

There are several plugins for rutorrent including traffic limit , data managerment directly from rutorrent.

You just need to go to its rutorrent UI.
 
well i dont use transmission or any torrent client for PC, i have a powerful seedbox and FTP speeds are pretty neat, and i do have a notification system there to redirect status updates via email (more like snmp sorts)..... gonna try this on my HTPC setup today and if i need any help i shall PM you, Great job :)
